Regarding ORIGA

Post by Faceman »

In 2013, Anime Boston invited Olga Yakovleva, better known as ORIGA, as a Guest of Honor. She sent chills down everyone's spines as she sung Inner Universe during our Opening Ceremonies.

We learned yesterday that Origa lost her battle with lung cancer. She was 44 years old.

We mourn the loss of this great talent and will remember her appearance forever.

I remember meeting her in the Dealers' Room that year. She seemed so vibrant at the time...

I've been spending some time re-watching my old Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex DVDs. Now that this has happened, I'll never hear "Inner Universe' or "Rise" quite the same way ever again. R.I.P. :cry:
